She added: “It's a momentous year for the Red Arrows as they are celebrating their 50th display season and have recently unveiled a new tail fin design.

“The makeover is the most significant change to the look of the team’s famous aircraft in its history.

“In the shape of a Union flag, the striking new tail design reflects the Best of British and emphasises the Red Arrows’ role as ambassadors for the United Kingdom and as the public face of the Royal Air Force.”
